Firm binding, clean inside copy. Age toning. OVERSIZE! Additional shipping charges may be requested for international & priority orders.

Especially important for these painters was the technique of automatism in recording the unconscious mind, an idea derived in turn from Freudian psychoanalysis. *** Includes: William Baziotes - Byron Browne - Arshile Gorky - Adolph Gottlieb - John D. Graham - Hans Hofmann - Gerome Kamrowski - Wifredo Lam - Andre Masson - Matta - Joan Miro - Robert Motherwell - Barnett Newman - Gordon Onslow Ford - Wolfgang Paalen - Jackson Pollock - Richard Pousette-Dart - Mark Rothko - David Smith - Theodoros Stamos - Yves Tanguy - Mark Tobey.
